THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, ISM
The Butterfly’s
Trail
By Albert Mary Thweatrb
thought for the week
A settled, unchangeable, clearly foreseeable order of things
does not suit our constitution, it tends to melancholy and a
fatty heart. Creatures of habit we are undoubtedly; but it is
one of our most fixed habits to be fond of variety. The mar.
who is never surprised does not know the taste of happiness,
and unless the unexpected sometimes happens to us, we are
most greviously disappointed. —Henry Van Dyke

Here is a poem I would like
to leave with you ail. "Why
worry, there are only two things
to worry about. Either you’re
well or sick. If you are well you
have nothing to worry about
and Jf you are sick you have
two things to worry about.
Either you get well or die. If
you get well you have nothing
to worry about. If you die you
have two things to worry about.
Either you go to heaven or hell.
If you’re going to heaven you
have nothing to worry about
and If, by any chance, you go
fishing you will be so busy
shaking hands with your friends
you won’t have time to worry."
Well, kids, I "has to went”
now. If I don’t “got” back I will
"wrote” for you. So bank snow
and I'll dig you later.
